GOING: S(5)

M&S PRINT WAUCHOPE SPRINT 1008m

Track: Soft 5   Clear (Max: 17)   Rail: +4m Entire.  

Crowie's Shout is expected to lead at a strong tempo. Tough way to end the day. TIME FOR VICTORY (2) maps well with senior rider back on and has excellent figures over this track and trip. Battled gamely with the 59kg in the heavy going when fifth over 1250m at Taree. Assess on his good win two starts back. DIS IS HEAVEN (5) racing in career best form and unlucky not to salute when a fast finishing second over 1000m at Casino. Saves his best for this track and is a genuine top three prospect. BJORN IRONSIDE (6) back in class and trip when closing off strongly to finish a narrow third over 1000m at Casino. Ben Looker sticks and worth plenty of thought. THE WOLF (3) improved sharply when gripping on to score over 1000m at Casino. Stays in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Time For Victory in a close contest.
